Yet another dumb-ass liberal putting foot in mouth.

Hey, its not as if he’s George Allen or something!

This is an outrage! Wait till Olbermann finds out.

Where is TRRK and the mighty racist club? Shouldn’t he & his flock of politically correct minions be chastising Mr. Douche for using obviously racist rhetoric in such a way??

Wearing pimp coat – totally racist!

Calling Rubio a “coconut” – oh, we don’t know. After all, it has many different meanings, so we can’t be sure. I mean, who really knows what the intent was.

Since Rubio is a Republican, racial slurs don’t count. And I’m sure the intent was honorable.

Since when is “coconut” a racially-charged word? I thought it was sexist term (as in breast) not a racial one.

Does Deutsch ever say “coconuts” (with the s) in the video? If not, the first sentence of this article should probably be changed to reflect what he actually said, which seems to be just “coconut.” The way the first sentence phrases it can only imply craziness; nothing else would make sense. It seems small but it makes a big difference.

As best as I can tell he said “coconut” and only once.

What really amazes me is that Joy Behar who has an opinion on everything and everyone and crows racist moron to anyone who disagrees with her not only does not know who Rubio is, duh, she just lets coconut slide right on by. No wonder her ratings are in the dumps. She isn’t even reasonably well informed.

Gives the song “I’ve got a lovely bunch of coconuts” a darker meaning.

He doesn’t say coconuts plural, he plainly calls rubio a “coconut”….and it’s not the least bit unusual on this site for the headline or the first sentence to be inaccurate (by design) to promote the slant. Business as usual here.

He had a Macaca moment, since he is a liberal, he gets to be as bigoted and rude as he wants.

I’m not sure that Allen knew what Macaca meant, and I’m not sure Deutsch knew what coconut meant. Good examples, both, of why people ought not go around shooting off their mouths. We know Allen has shown a great deal of RACIAL insensitivity during his public career, but I don’t know of a blatant RACIST act or utterance. I know almost nothing about Deutsch, except that he is remarkably successful in his field. Allen was tried by his peers, the voters of Virginia, and found to be sorely lacking. The good thing very Virginians is that they got a very, very good senator in place of a mediocre one. Deutsch will be tried by his peers, but I imagine a sincere apology will exonerate him if, as I suspect, he otherwise does his job well. Seems to me there is no real issue here. At least not an issue to be decided by the mundane and ill-informed utterances of a gaggle of jaw flappers.

You know this is very interesting. I went to school in Texas, and boarding school in New York. I heard “coconut” used often in both places. I don’t think I’ve heard it in a number of years. I wonder if it has disappeared due to the demographic shift, the level of Hispanic assimilation, greater sensitivity? All? None?

I wasn’t that familiar with “Oreo” in the part of Texas I grew up in, but we had a miniscule African-American population. Once I was in New York, I heard it often, and I heard it often after Obama began to appear to be a serious candidate and since. Why has this not fallen into disfavor?

Anyone know Deutsch’s background? Why he might have used “coconut”?

Republican senatorial candidate Marco Rubio in the same Republican party that supports Republcian chichen-hawk and draft-doger Tom Tancredo.

Tancredo famously calling city of Miami, Florida a “Third World country” and a city as having been taken over by “thugs” and “separatists” as well as keeping on his staff Marcus Epstein who had assaulted an African American woman in 2007, and had used a racial epithet..

Tancredo also “criticized the Denver Public Library system for purchasing reading materials written in Spanish and for offering space for classes to be held for these library users, on the grounds that putting Spanish-speakers in a ‘linguistic ghetto’ would delay their integration into American society.”

No self-respecting Hispanic American, unless they are in it for the $$$ or are mentally ill could be a member of the Republican party.

Marco Rubio is ergo a “Coconut”… brown on the outside, Lilly white on the inside, a completely accurate description.

I’ve heard the Republican Party is a Big Tent. With the advent of the (White) Tea Partiers, perhaps Big Trailer is more accurate.

“I’ve heard the Republican Party is a Big Tent. With the advent of the (White) Tea Partiers, perhaps Big Trailer is more accurate.”

Republican tolerance runs a mile wide and a half-inch deep.

Lol, Marco Rubio, aka “Coconut” is a GOP darling as long as he tows the anti-Hispanic line as defined by Tom Tancredo and other Lilly white Republicans.

As with with gay people who claim to be Republican being a Hispanic Republican or African-American Republican requires a pretty high degree of self-loathing and some big time denial I would think… probably just in it for the money aka, wingnut welfare.

proudpatriotusa….so you don’t like gay people, or hispanic people, or black people, if they’re republicans. Got it. So do you call those people names because they don’t believe what you believe? (like coconut, oreo, etc)

Isn’t that the very defininition of being a racist? Doesn’t that make you a racist? How do you square that circle? How does that make you any different than a redneck calling a black guy a ni%%er?

Seriously. Explain it to us please.

To the two morons above, Real Royal King and proudpatriotusa, you couldn’t be any more pathetic. It’s amazing how much today’s liberals have in common with slave masters. You employ the very tactics they used to keep their slaves in line.

Interesting that ‘proud’ brought up self-loathing. Racist Royal King is a self-loathing white person. And proud, there are plenty of areas where it’s a mystery why blacks would be Democrats. In Chicago, Jesse Jackson was a force in getting out the Democratic vote. And who was Jesse’s best friend? Jeff Fort. Who was he? The leader of El Rukn, who shook down black business men, preyed on the black community under the guise of helping, and whose criminal organization was responsible for over two hundred deaths (mostly other blacks). If you’d ever take off those far left blinders, maybe you’d see why some of those ‘coconuts’ and ‘oreos’ decided the democrats aren’t all you crack them up to be.

“Like, you know, this douche Deutsch down in NY,”

I have never heard the word coconut used to describe someone as goofy or bananas. And, why would he be calling Rubio ‘goofy’ anyway? Rubio isn’t remotely goofy. Or crazy. The only thing that makes sense is the slur.

Playing dumb isn’t going to work, at least with the smart crowd, it will work with his lefty co-horts. They always protect each other. If he were a conservative he would be hounded out of his job, but alas, he is not. Furthermore, he works for MSNBC — the most racist cable organization out there.

Detusch, still trying to be relevant. Classless as always.

I see Jebbers is beginning to let it me known he supports the Tea Partier Rubio.

Tancredo’s remark that Miami is a third world country may not be so far off the mark–you can drive 20 miles and not see a single sign in English–but as for Deutch’s remarks, at least he didn’t say “he has none of that negro dialect.”
